Well, another fan favorite lookg
forward to the Crusade this year
and the variety show is Down
syndrome of Down syndrome of
Louisville's Boogie Down crew.
I'm with Carly Riggs,
the engagement director
and I know, wow, it's
coming up. Yes, we're so excite.
It's one of our favorite favorite time
to perform is during the Crusad.
Well, we have to say we've got a
couple of the members here toda.
Yes, we're going to have
a little fun with this because I
know that they have been rehear.
So much ahead of the big show.
So they're going to show me some
moves in just a little bit and
see if I can hang on how long,
Like, what are rehearsals?
Like what do you do to kind
of gear up for the show.
So the booking on crew is actua,
it started out as,
as a way for our members
to get healthy movement.
So we we practice weekly and we,
when we learn a new song,
it just adds on to our repertoi.
So if we played all of our musi,
we've been doing this 10 years,
we could probably perform,
perform for two hours.
You have a set list longer than Taylor Swift,
probably, Yeah. Yeah.
You know, I know
this is just important for you
all to be involved in the crusa,
but what does it mean to be a pt
where everybody cannot wait to e
the Boogie Down crew in the 70th show?
Oh, it's so exciting.
I mean, this is such an amazing
opportunity for community engagement and
involvement and just to show them off,
they're so talented,
they're so entertaining and we
are booked for the summer.
I think this is, you know,
it's such a great publicity form
and and we get calls afterwards
to have them come perform.
So and we're. We're free,
so if you need it afterwards,
actually we're almost free.
We do collect money for the
crusade at our performances,
if you'd like to donate for tha.
At our performances,
we always collect for the Crusa.
You know, we've been talking
about challenges all morning lo.
What challenge would you out
there to maybe families that
want to get their kids involved?
And what you all do or or what u
want people to know about the Crusade,
Absolutely. So we actually,
the Boogie Down crew is going to
perform on May 27th as the presw
for the Norton Commons concert
and we're going to do a a very
exciting money minute where we'e
going to challenge the audienceo
run around and throw money at u.
We're going to collect as much s
we can and then put it in a donn
bucket when we perform on on June 3rd.
So we are looking for you know.
Last year, I think we did 1500,
So I'd love to double that and do 3000.
What
do you guys think? Yeah.
All right. So I understand
they're going to show me a coupf
moves from one of their easy routines.
